I have a disparate array of ingredients. I was originally thinking that I might make tzatziki. Although I wanted to roast the squash. Which made me think of making curry, instead. But curry would be better with cubed squash, instead of puréed. Which would be […]
I don’t entirely know how I ended up with Mayocoba beans. They were likely on sale because I have a habit of hoarding dry goods like they’re going out of style. Although I always know that I’m prepared in the event that I want to […]
I was perusing my favorite slightly out of the way grocery store that usually has fun produce. If you’ve ever been to Wisconsin, this is of course Woodman’s. Which no one outside of this regionally specific local, employee-owned chain that’s open 24/7 and has the […]
